I’m skipping Foto Friday today. Most of the day today was spent following a half naked Noah trying to make sure that he doesn’t pee on the carpet… I was not about to document that with photo’s and get all of the pervs on here… though I do have to say he has the sweetest most adorable little tushie!

Happy Birthday to my youngest sister K!!!!

Cancer frigging sucks… we have had more than our fair share here in my family. My Opa (my mom’s dad) had lung and stomach cancer, his sister – my great aunt – passed away after battling colon cancer for years… an aunt of mine had breast cancer… and now I find out that the prostate cancer that my uncle has is spreading fast (faster than his doctor his seen before) and it’s not responding to treatment.

Have you had the chance to hear about Jonathan Sprout? Well, you may just be hearing more of and from him after the Grammy Awards this weekend! That’s because he has been nominated by the Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences for his album American Heroes #3 in the Best Musical Album for Children category.

My dearest Heiney,

I’m am writing this to apologize – I have treated you terribly in the past few months. I will try my best to make it up to you if you let me. Let me just explain what happened…

So… as I mentioned earlier this week, Noah has been sick since the beginning of the week. At first we thought that he was cutting teeth, seeing that his two top I teeth and a molar were on the verge of popping through.

Are you a blogger who hosts giveaways on your blog? If so, then you may want to check this out. I’ve started a new Giveaway Bloggers page where you can link up your blog to a static list!

For my readers… this will hopefully give you a chance to be able to go from one giveaway blog to the next without a lot of searching or typing, giving you more time to enter, enter, enter!!

I tend to get a severe case of craft procrastination (not that I ever, ever procrastinate about anything else! ha!). I will start a project and then for one reason or another will not finish it. Either I don’t have all of the materials needed, something goes wrong with it or I just get bored… it doesn’t really matter because the fate of the project is usually the same as the others… it gets shoved off somewhere to be “finished later”.

Happy New Year!!!

I hope that you all had a good New Years Eve. Like I wrote yesterday, ours was pretty low key. Ray ended up falling asleep on the couch. He did wake up in time to go upstairs to get ready for bed and was awake at midnight, so all was okay! (Hey you just have to get that midnight kiss!!)

We started out our day early… the alarm went off at 7 am (well the first time). By 7:45 Noah and I were up and getting ready (we let daddy sleep a little while longer… aren’t we nice?!) since together we take the longest. After getting Noah washed and dressed we spent some time doing a little of this…
